Notable Quotables
Chiefs: "I understand that there's a lot of disappointment out there and I'm disappointed as well. We're going to try to work to get it better. I still think that we have talent on the team, but the talent has to play better."

—Chiefs head coach Romeo Crennel after his team went 1-3 to start the season.

Ravens: "He's a star. He's one of the premier players in the NFL and has been for a number of years. He's a guy that plays big. He's got great catch radius."

—Ravens coach John Harbaugh on wide receiver Anquan Boldin.

Spread: Ravens by 7

ESPN Preview
Baltimore Ravens vs. Kansas City Chiefs - Preview - October 07, 2012 - ESPN (http://scores.espn.go.com/nfl/nflpreview?gameId=321007012)

After struggling in their lone road game, there is some concern with how the Baltimore Ravens' no-huddle offense will perform Sunday at Kansas City's Arrowhead Stadium, historically one of the league's loudest venues.

Although the noise can be deafening, the fans there haven't had much to cheer about.

Coming back from a well-deserved break, the rejuvenated Ravens try to again make things difficult for Matt Cassel, whose turnovers have been one of the biggest reasons for the Chiefs' slow start.

Baltimore (3-1) has been off since beating Cleveland 23-16 last Thursday, its fourth game in 18 days. The veteran defense, led by 37-year-old Ray Lewis, admitted being a bit winded at the end of the game as the Browns' last-ditch pass attempt from the Ravens' 18-yard line fell incomplete.

"I know a lot of guys out there were fighting fatigue," safety Ed Reed said.

Coach John Harbaugh gave his team last weekend off to rest and get healthy before beginning a stretch of three of four games on the road.

The only time the Ravens have played away from Baltimore -- in Philadelphia on Sept. 16 -- their offense stalled, totaling a season-low 325 yards while turning the ball over twice in a 24-23 loss. In their three games at M&T Bank Stadium, the Ravens have averaged 32.7 points and 457.0 yards with two total turnovers.

Crowd noise forced Joe Flacco and the offense to huddle up at times in Philadelphia, and Harbaugh expects similar challenges at Arrowhead.

"The times we've played there, it's been really loud," Harbaugh said. "It's one of the great venues in the NFL. It's a beautiful setting, it's traditional and it's really, really red. Our guys will have to be ready for that."

Despite Kansas City's home-field advantage, the Ravens had little trouble in their last game there, winning 30-7 in a 2010 wild-card game. Flacco passed for 265 yards and two touchdowns, Ray Rice finished with 99 yards from scrimmage and a score while Baltimore picked Cassel off three times.

While Arrowhead still gets loud, much of the noise there this year has been boos directed at Cassel.

The embattled quarterback has thrown seven interceptions and has fumbled three times, accounting for two-thirds of the team's league-high 15 turnovers. The Chiefs (1-3) have been outscored 77-44 in losing their two home games, and have lost six of their last seven at Arrowhead.

"It starts with me," said Cassel, who was intercepted three times in last Sunday's 37-20 loss to San Diego. "I've got to do a better job of protecting the football and putting our team in a better situation to be successful."

Coach Romeo Crennel felt the need to defend Cassel, opening his postgame press conference by stating he would remain the starting quarterback without even being asked.

"We just have to get him to be more consistent," he said.

Cassel wasn't the only one at fault Sunday, as Jamaal Charles fumbled twice -- part of a six-turnover performance by the Chiefs.

Cleaning up their miscues against a Ravens team that has forced eight turnovers seems like a tall order. As does finding room for Charles, who has run for 325 yards in the last two games but now faces a Baltimore defense that's allowed 2.4 yards per carry in its last two.

The Ravens' offense has been far more efficient.

Flacco has completed 28 passes in each of the past two games, totaling 738 yards. Torrey Smith was on the receiving end of 12 of those completions, accumulating 224 yards, while Anquan Boldin had 13 receptions for 179 yards.

None of this bodes well for Kansas City, which has allowed 10 passing TDs -- tied for second-most in the league.

The Chiefs also have the difficult task of containing Rice, who is averaging 5.0 yards per carry. He had 108 yards on 19 attempts in his only regular-season game against the Chiefs, a 38-24 win in 2009.

Flacco passed for 307 yards with three TDs.

[70 chiefsfan70]

Great job putting this together, as always I appreciate this. Go Chiefs! I see an upset in the making!

Please nobody burst my bubble, as this could happen.


GO CHIEFS!!!!!!!!

[AkChief49]

Okay Chiefs. Here's the deal. Monday is my birthday and all I want is a win. Just do it!!

[BoltWalt]

I think of this game as both a trap game and a revenge game. A trap in that this Chief team is ready to release their anger on a team that they certainly still want revenge upon for ending their trip to the playoffs two years ago. I am pulling for you Chiefs, you can do this

[dl89]

They can do it, but they won't. But I love the enthusiasm. We still give up too many pass plays in the middle of the field, and Flacco is 3rd out of all QBs in passing yards. If we get down early, we'll be relying way too much on Cassel's arm to win.

[#58ChiefsFan]

Ravens -7 sure looks like some easy money.

[NJChiefs]

Total offense: 418 ypg. Total defense: 334 ypg. Turnover differential -13. Very simple. Win the turnover battle and we win the game. It's really not that complicated.

[TopekaRoy]

I'm really excited about today's game. I expect Brandon to have a huge day and get 150 rec. yds. I also predict Charles will force 2 turnovers!

Oops, wrong forum. I was talking about Brandon Marshal and Charles Tilman!

Da Bearssss!

[matthewschiefs]

Go Chiefs!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Hayvern]

Coach Cowher just talked up the team, claiming we would go 10-6 on the season and make the playoffs.

I wonder if there is a deal in the works?

[kcticketguy]

[2010chiefs]

atdhe.tv it should work

[matthewschiefs]

Good start from the d we are going to need them to step it up big time today if we have any shot

[loyalchief91]

The opposing team didn't march down the field and score a td on their first drive of the game..so that's good

[Bike]

Chiefs!

[kcticketguy]

thanks!

[jason1981]

We finally had a pass play.

[Bike]

Score - when it matters! Charles baby!!

[KCraised]

I predict a win. I think they will get this one. All that fan pressure has to spark them

[matthewschiefs]

Let me just say
CHARLES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[matthewschiefs]

STUPID play call Geeze

[loyalchief91]

conservative playcalling ugh

[KCraised]

Inexcusable playcall....unreal

[jason1981]

They want to show that they can win with cassel by running the the whole game. There just proving them selves wrong by showingbthe dont trust cassell either.

[matthewschiefs]

SACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

D has came to play today at least

[KCraised]

Yeah, that doesnt show confidence in Cassel at ALL

[loyalchief91]

Defense looking good so far

[matthewschiefs]

Charles fumbles again GEEZE

[loyalchief91]

Turnovers

[matthewschiefs]

Got lucky that it worked out but Charles has to get this fumbles thing worked out

[loyalchief91]

Omfg These Fumbles

[matthewschiefs]

GEEZE this is what happens when you can't throw the ball because you don't trust the qb

[loyalchief91]

And that was a good drive too..

[KCraised]

We are god D*** cursed...

[Bike]

GEEZE this is what happens when you can't throw the ball because you don't trust the qb
Correct. Can't win turning the ball over and a 3rd string QB.

[2010chiefs]

what kind of play was that. Another turnover.

[nigeriannightmare]

GEEZE this is what happens when you can't throw the ball because you don't trust the qb

We are running with success why should we abandon it.

[N TX Dave]

Two fumbles in one drive!

[matthewschiefs]

This d just doesn't respond well to turnovers

[matthewschiefs]

We are running with success why should we abandon it.

You have to be able to show that you can do both run and pass. If you can only do one or the other the d picks up on it and they adjust and that gives them an advantage

[2010chiefs]

way to go defense.

[matthewschiefs]

On the bright side the d is 3/3 holding on 3rd down that's something we have not seen this year

[TopekaRoy]

GEEZE this is what happens when you can't throw the ball because you don't trust the qb

Yeah, because you are MUCH less likely to turn the ball over throwing it than handing off, and receivers NEVER fumble [/sarcasm].

[loyalchief91]

Offense gotta help the defense out

[nigeriannightmare]

You have to be able to show that you can do both run and pass. If you can only do one or the other the d picks up on it and they adjust and that gives them an advantage


I cant believe you are blaming are perfectly pitched ball than resluted in a rookie fumbling on poor qb play. We had just gotten 5 yards on first down. Seriously stop with the hating. He isn't going anywhere there isn't a quality option. Deal with it.

[Bike]

Offense gotta help the defense out
Bench Cassel would be a good start.

[Bike]

Our new kick returner...

[nigeriannightmare]

Why are we running the ball. We need to mix it up.

Freaking hog wash. Run till they stop us.

[loyalchief91]

Running all over there defense

[ctchiefsfan]

Can anyone provide a link to a live stream?

I'm not blameing Cassel at all for that one. He did his job there. But we have not shown that we are willing to throw the ball today. The D picks up on it. When you're not even willing to throw on 3rd and 8 that says something to the d. The run game is going well right now but at some point we are going to have to show that we are willing to put the ball in the air 1 demensional offense just don't work that often in the NFL

Charles has 10 runs in 1st quarter and 1 reception, 11 touches times 4 is 44 in the game, they better figure out some other way to move the ball, we can not run Charles 40 times a game.

We already did on the first or second page.

[loyalchief91]

**********

[matthewschiefs]

That pick is on BOWE Cassel did his job. Bowe didn't do his

[loyalchief91]

Another promising drive with ANOTHER TURNOVER

[2010chiefs]

int. Are u frickin kidding me.

[loyalchief91]

That pick is on BOWE Cassel did his job. Bowe didn't do his
Doesn't matter. Still a turnover.

[brdempsey69]

Once again, the Chiefs are shooting themselves in the arse.

[N TX Dave]

Now we know why we are not passing. 17 turnovers this year just terrible.

[rodu]

throw into an area with three Ravens, maybe not a good idea, but Bowe needs to catch that

[Hayvern]

int. Are u frickin kidding me.

Yep, that will kill us everytime

[matthewschiefs]

SACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Houston is a HUGE player right now

[CHIEFS_FN_ROCK]

The kansas city Turnovers

[Hayvern]

Defense is playing well, but they are going to get tired if the offense does not stop turning the ball over.

[N TX Dave]

If it is not a turnover it is a stupid penalty

[matthewschiefs]

Defense is playing well, but they are going to get tired if the offense does not stop turning the ball over.

Yes they are. They are keeping us in this one like last week but they will break if we keep giving the ravens the ball

[ctchiefsfan]

We already did on the first or second page.

Thanks! I had missed it. My bad!

[N TX Dave]

Yes they are. They are keeping us in this one like last week but they will break if we keep giving the ravens the ball

We are winning the TOP 12:02 minutes to 8:03 so the D should not be getting tired.

[matthewschiefs]

Good job defense not letting them get 2 scores up after anther turnover

[Hayvern]

Great play by Copper.

[CHIEFS_FN_ROCK]

Nice heads up play copper

[matthewschiefs]

2 turnovers down and only down 3 This defense has really come a long way from the first couple of weeks

[Hayvern]

2 turnovers down and only down 3 This defense has really come a long way from the first couple of weeks

They still have to play 4 quarters

[Bike]

God Damnit

God had nothing to do with it...

[Hayvern]

I am liking the no huddle

[nigeriannightmare]

144 yards rushing already. And the baltimore defense has only allowed 94 yards. Fan freaking tastic.

But yes the no hudde is looking good.

[matthewschiefs]

I am liking the no huddle

We have always done better in the no huddle I don't understand why we haven't used it more

[N TX Dave]

First downs 4 to 9
Total yards 84 to 160
and two turnovers and that makes you down 3-0

[Bike]

We have always done better in the no huddle I don't understand why we haven't used it more
Cassel.

[KCraised]

No trust in Cassel, whatsoever

[matthewschiefs]

They still have to play 4 quarters

Yes they do but usually we are down 2 plus scores when we have 3 turnovers and have not taken one away

[matthewschiefs]

Played for the 3 there

[ctchiefsfan]

Shame to not get a TD out of that drive, but tie game is better than nothing

[Lewis_Chiefs]

2nd and 20 and they run ???? I'm all for the running game but there are times when you have to throw.

[rodu]

we have a high school esque offense in that it's just run run run run

[Hayvern]

There is an incredible lack of confidence in Cassel right now. So the Ravens will adjust on the run, we have seen it already begun

[nigeriannightmare]

2nd and 20 and they run ???? I'm all for the running game but there are times when you have to throw.

3rd and 20 and ed reed back there. i might play it safe too.

[nigeriannightmare]

we have a high school esque offense in that it's just run run run run

Wow. jamaal charles has more yards than the entire baltimore offense and everyone is *****ing.

[rodu]

we're just setting them up for a PA pass that Cassell will miss on in the 4th

[Hayvern]

Wow. jamaal charles has more yards than the entire baltimore offense and everyone is *****ing.

Because the defense can easily adjust to that. Charles is already feeling the pain, nothing like wearing him out.

[matthewschiefs]

Got lucky that Boldin dropped that one

[rodu]

will Baltimore adjust to the run before they get worn out?

[ctchiefsfan]

Need to stop them here and get one more possession before the half.

[ctchiefsfan]

Yes!!!!!

[N TX Dave]

Because the defense can easily adjust to that. Charles is already feeling the pain, nothing like wearing him out.

Thats what I said at the end of 1st quarter 10 carries he can not keep that rate up, that would be 40 carries in the game.

[matthewschiefs]

Wow. jamaal charles has more yards than the entire baltimore offense and everyone is *****ing.

I'm not going to really complain I just think that at some point we are going to have to make a play threw the air. Something that we haven't seen them even really try much today.

[ctchiefsfan]

Now lets get some more points before the half!

[nigeriannightmare]

I'm not going to really complain I just think that at some point we are going to have to make a play threw the air. Something that we haven't seen them even really try much today.


And why should we? Is cassel your fantasy qb. I hope we rush for 300 yards bro.

[ctchiefsfan]

Throw the ball now! They won't expect it.

[Bike]

Are we EVER gonna get a lead on somebody?

[ctchiefsfan]

Time for a gimmick play.

[matthewschiefs]

And why should we? Is cassel your fantasy qb. I hope we rush for 300 yards bro.

No he's not but like I said earlier 1 demensional offenses don't work out most the time.

[rodu]

Time for a gimmick play.

the forward pass

[rodu]

No he's not but like I said earlier 1 demensional offenses don't work out most the time.

neither do ones with Matt Cassel throwing

[ctchiefsfan]

First down, but we need yardage in bigger chunks! Need some more points before the half!

[ctchiefsfan]

Yes!!!!!!

[2010chiefs]

cant win running every damn play. Thats settling for 3 every drive.

[ctchiefsfan]

Too long for Succup. Try for a 6-8 yard pass.

[KCraised]

Threw behind bowe. Man, he needs to fix that ball placement

[ctchiefsfan]

Wtf???????????!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[ctchiefsfan]

Need this spot.

[Hayvern]

Delay of game! Pathetic

[ctchiefsfan]

DAMMIT! Needed that first down.

[ctchiefsfan]

CRAP!!!!! Try for the FG!!!!!! Try SOMETHING to go for points!!!!!

[loyalchief91]

Conservative conservative conservative

[KCraised]

Go for the first, idiots!!!

[matthewschiefs]

This would be a good time to try takeing a shot down the field if they turn it over then they won't have much time to work with I don't like a punt here

[ctchiefsfan]

If they punt this I am going to slit my wrists!!!!! Going for the first down would be better. Try something dammit!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[nigeriannightmare]

Delay of game! Pathetic

After a spiked ball.

[Hayvern]

No confidence in Cassel, none at all, no chance of even throwing a hail mary to the end zone.

[70 chiefsfan70]

This would be a good time to try takeing a shot down the field if they turn it over then they won't have much time to work with I don't like a punt here


Thats what I was thinking.

[ctchiefsfan]

So try for the FG!!!!!!!!!!!

[ctchiefsfan]

Stupid Stupid Stupid!!!!!!!!!!!

[matthewschiefs]

Really don't like that call I thought he had a first but the idoit refs don't like to admit there wrong

[nigeriannightmare]

2 quarters of hard played football though. Good to see.

[rodu]

a punt?

[N TX Dave]

Challange the spot what happens if we lose we do not have a timeout to lose?

[70 chiefsfan70]

This is the lamest play I have seen in a long time. We know now the OC or HC don't even believe in Cassel.

SAD!

[matthewschiefs]

The d was outstanding

The running game was great The only thing I would like to see is them open the offense up a tad more.

[matthewschiefs]

Challange the spot what happens if we lose we do not have a timeout to lose?

Under 2 minuits they can't challange all reviews come from the booth

[KCraised]

This coaching is a major problem. This needs dealt with

[loyalchief91]

This coaching is a major problem. This needs dealt with
Yes, yes it does

[Hayvern]

I love the halftime show. they show highlights of the Chiefs game, but both highlights are Ravens highlights.

[ctchiefsfan]

We're 1 and freaking 3!!! NO EXCUSE for playing that conservative! We need to try anything we can think of to WIN....not play not to lose! Only WINS will get us back in the playoff race!!!!!!!!!

That punt was just as STUPID as STUPID gets!

A flea-flicker would have been a better call!!!!

[2010chiefs]

wow. The coaching staff are morons to punt. They had nothng to lose by taking a shot down field or going for the first.

[McLovin]

This is the lamest play I have seen in a long time. We know now the OC or HC don't even believe in Cassel.

SAD!

At this point I believe it is more they don't have confidence in Cassel, Quinn or Stanzi... This is pathetic .. They need to make Cassel a backup and put someone else in ... I vote Colquitt since they do what they can to get him involved in the game anyway.

[McLovin]

We're 1 and freaking 3!!! NO EXCUSE for playing that conservative! We need to try anything we can think of to WIN....not play not to lose! Only WINS will get us back in the playoff race!!!!!!!!!

That punt was just as STUPID as STUPID gets!

A flea-flicker would have been a better call!!!!

Wondering if they are playing for draft position so we can get a real quarterback.

[Bike]

This is the lamest play I have seen in a long time. We know now the OC or HC don't even believe in Cassel.

SAD!
Yet they continue to leave him in there....
The 60 million dollar Pioli mistake?

[matthewschiefs]

IF we are going to win this game we are going to have to open the offense up a little. A little from the passing game will help keep the run game going. I hate the palycalling we have seen. Cassel when he has been asked to do something has done his job today. Even the pick he hit his number 1 WR in the hands. What more could he do? Open it up a little. Lets please not go back to Herm ball

They are going to have to open it up. Charles cannot carry this entire game and make it through the season.

[matthewschiefs]

THAT's a good way to start the Half LETS GET THE FREAKING LEAD

[matthewschiefs]

Don't think they can overturn it but I though it looked like we clearly got the first on the review at the end of the half

[matthewschiefs]

Copper has made 2 plays today good job

[matthewschiefs]

YOU HAVE TO BE KIDDING ME

Put Quinn in GEEZE

[ctchiefsfan]

Wtf??????????????

[McLovin]

You have to be kidding me ... RELEASE CASSEL he is 100% WORTHLESS

[loyalchief91]

turnovers killing us again

[Bike]

You've got to be kidding. Cassel absolutely SUCKS.

[iratefan]

story of our franchise. fumbling at the 2 yrd line.

[brdempsey69]

Un-f#$%ing-believable !!

[McLovin]

Romeo is also worthless for not benching him, and Pioli for not stepping in, should I add in Clark

[Bike]

Face it Pioli/Crennel. You made a mistake with Cassel. Admit it and move on.

[Hayvern]

MAn oh man

[CHIEFS_FN_ROCK]

One of the best rb in the league and gonna try a qb keeper Aflippingmazing!!!

[iratefan]

so let me get this straight. chiefs hold ravens to 3 points all first half. i tune into the second half just in time to watch a turnover, and ever since i started actually watching them, theyve completely disintegrated. am i cursed?

[KCraised]

He looks so nervous when he throws. He is so scared to mess up, that he messes up. Sad

[Bike]

Romeo is also worthless for not benching him, and Pioli for not stepping in, should I add in Clark
Correct. But Romeo has orders from headquarters.

[Hayvern]

THat fumble was the incident that changes this game

[ctchiefsfan]

I fear you may be right.

Yes, turn off your TV and go out and do yardwork. We got this!

:yahoo:

No, we collectively are

[ctchiefsfan]

Crap!

[loyalchief91]

It's only 6 to 3. Chill out.

[matthewschiefs]

Well we are still in this game even with 4 turnovers somehow some way a td and we have the lead

[McLovin]

Correct. But Romeo has orders from headquarters.

Yeah Pioli not wanting to admit expensive total failure. But if Romeo ever wants to be head coach he needs to step up and not be a yes man. If he is worried about getting fired he needs to bench Cassel and go on record as having done it against orders to save the team. Then when they fire him for it (probably wouldn't because of how it would look) he may get another chance ... the way it looks right now he isn't head coach material.

[iratefan]

No, we collectively are

I should also add that the NO game was the only game of the season i flat out DIDNT watch. thats right, the one win of the season and i missed it.

[ctchiefsfan]

Poor Copper! Great play like that and we turn it into NOTHING!

[Bike]

why is worthless Cassel walking onto the field?

[rodu]

How we answer on this drive is going to be big, my guess it's a Charles run

[2010chiefs]

wow. Cassel is poison to this team. How do you screw up doing the absolute minimum. He would get fired making minimum wage.

[rodu]

bring back Casey Printers!!

[rodu]

3rd and 12, hmm how about a run

[Bike]

Cassel SUCKS.

[Hayvern]

Keep running Charles over and over and over again, told you the Ravens would adjust

[brdempsey69]

Is Cassel still in the game?

[rodu]

at least give Gray some carries, give Charles a breather

[iratefan]

cant throw on a 3rd and 12. how sad.

ps charles' success will always be a factor of the blocking available . which imo has been spotty at best with the chiefs (we're just not big physical blockers). you cant rely on the guy to float over the defense. without a solid passing game (which consists solely on bowe its become clear), this offense is completely toothless.

[matthewschiefs]

Is Cassel still in the game?

Yes for some reason he is.

I think Cassel has been given "time for a chance to keep the job" as we just heard and FAILED.

[ctchiefsfan]

Our D is playing GREAT! Special Teams too. JC is great but the fumbles have hurt and the Ravens are adjusting. Cassel....It is now or never. If you can't show something now you have to go.

[CHIEFS_FN_ROCK]

So sick of seeing run run run run just snap it to Charles.

[matthewschiefs]

PICK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Once again the D is keeping us alive

[ctchiefsfan]

FLOWERS! D keeping us in this game!

[ctchiefsfan]

DAMMIT! Score some points!!!!!!

[Bike]

The good - Flowers interception!
The bad - Cassel back on the field.

[2010chiefs]

another great play by the d but here comes cassel. Damn!

[KCraised]

This is embarrassing. No confidence in Cassel. Pull his *** if you dont trust him. F'ing idiot coaches

[loyalchief91]

Stop running the ****ing ball over and over and over

[matthewschiefs]

The ravens d has adjusted to the run just like I knew they would we have to make a play in the passing game if we have any shot to win this game.

[ctchiefsfan]

They are pretty much going to shut down JC now. Got to find another way to move the ball. Cassel.....It's on you dude. Man up or go away.

[iratefan]

holy christ this is worse than bad. chiefs are blatantly signalling "we cant do anything" with this latest series. that timeout was a bad statement.

[Bike]

The only 60 million dollar 3rd string quarterback to ever play the game! And the Chiefs have him!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!!

[ctchiefsfan]

The ravens d has adjusted to the run just like I knew they would we have to make a play in the passing game if we have any shot to win this game.

The way this is going we could win with just our D and Special Teams. And we may have to.

[matthewschiefs]

FREAKING BENCH CASSEL

He is looking like Tyler palko

[70 chiefsfan70]

If I were the Ravens D I would only worry about stopping the run

[ctchiefsfan]

This is just UN-F'ing-real!!!!!!!!!!! I need vast quantities of whiskey!

[Hayvern]

Cassel has to be dead man walking. there is just no way this can continue

[Bike]

Bowe shoulda had that one.

[iratefan]

ive never seen so many receivers have to jump so high so consistently to make completions. or to have them intercepted.

[ctchiefsfan]

He is looking like Tyler palko

Not even that good.

[CHIEFS_FN_ROCK]

How can they say good throw by cassel bowe had to jump 10 ft to try to catch it

[loyalchief91]

Chiefs lost this game Ravens didn't win it. turnovers

[ctchiefsfan]

Cassel has to be dead man walking. there is just no way this can continue

If Cassel doesn't pull it together this game then he has to go. No win this week and this had better be his last day on the field as a Chief.

[iratefan]

dude was wide open. only so many turnovers you can handle as D i suppose.

[2010chiefs]

ahhh. Another overthrown pass by cassel. Get him the Bleep outta there. Be a man and step down cassel.

[matthewschiefs]

The D may have broken they can only keep us in it for so long

[KCraised]

Gooood job, 50!

[matthewschiefs]

SACK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Houston again.

STill alive BENCH CASSEL PLEASE WE STILL HAVE A SHOT

[Eydugstr]

Pathetic. We have NO passing offense whatsoever. Our D is doing everything in their power to keep us in the game, but how long is that going to last if we keep giving them the ball?

I'm listening to 101, Len Dawson has pointed out three different times that Baltimore's D hasn't followed Cassel once when he rolls out.

[iratefan]

theyre not going to put in quinn while its still a 1 score game. its just not gonna happen. for some reason politics dont seem to allow that from coaches.

[ctchiefsfan]

Now we need a TD just to be up by 1. I'm just about ready to rip off Cassel's head and ship down his neck!!!!!!!

[Hayvern]

The Ravens know Cassel will not throw the ball.

[Bike]

The Ravens know Cassel will not throw the ball.
And if he does throw it, they will either intercept it or it will fall incomplete...

[ctchiefsfan]

STill alive BENCH CASSEL PLEASE WE STILL HAVE A SHOT

YUP!

[Bike]

WTF??????
Cassel trotting back on the field.

[McLovin]

Wow and here comes Cassel... If Quinn ever gets in he is not going to have any confidence ... if they are allowing this and not going to him now he has to feel like a piece of $hit.

[ctchiefsfan]

ABC......Anybody But Cassel!

[iratefan]

omg this is the saddest thign ive ever seen. Charles is HUMAN HES NOT ****ING SUPERMAN!!!

[KCraised]

This is getting silly. They are gonna get JC hurt

[matthewschiefs]

NICE CATCH

Baldwin sighting

[ctchiefsfan]

Nice catch!

[Bike]

Cassel still sucks.

[McLovin]

Still almost overthrew a 6'4 Baldwin. WOW ... That catch didn't happen with most receivers.

[Bike]

Cassel sit down you idiot.

[iratefan]

cassel's 3rd down conversion strategy still seems to revolve around hoping for interference.

[McLovin]

Anyone know of a good place in KC for me to burn my Cassel jersey .. Half tempted to sell it to an opposing team fan as Cassel is absolutely the Ravens best player today.

[ctchiefsfan]

Cassel has to go. Any chance we can trade him for a 55 year old overweight former cheerleader? We'd be getting the better end of the deal.

[McLovin]

This might be a good place for points... have the D get a safety.

[KCraised]

Any place is a good place!

[matthewschiefs]

We have reached the point that this is no longer on Cassel it's on Romeo. If he benches Cassel during the game Pioli isn't going to run onto the field fire him and coach the team just to put Cassel back in. This is now on ROMEO.

[ctchiefsfan]

Anyone know of a good place in KC for me to burn my Cassel jersey .. Half tempted to sell it to an opposing team fan as Cassel is absolutely the Ravens best player today.

Sorry man....Wouldn't take it if you paid the shipping.

[matthewschiefs]

NICE play by Poe

[ctchiefsfan]

Another stop by our D. Should get good field position. Can out O do ANYTHING. Will they put idiot Cassel in again?

[Hayvern]

Well at least Crennel is consistent, he said Cassel was the guy and it does not look like he is going to change that

[ctchiefsfan]

PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE......Don't put Cassel in again!

[McLovin]

Sorry man....Wouldn't take it if you paid the shipping.

I live right outside KC and I would imagine someone who doesn't own a single shirt would turn it down at this point.

[McLovin]

And there is Matt 'Backup'Cassel

[Hayvern]

Cassel injured and down.

[McLovin]

Hope he is hurt. I feel bad saying that but hope it puts him in IR.

[Bike]

LOL the announcer says it was an incompletion, but at least it wasn't an interception.

[ctchiefsfan]

Hopefully Cassel is hurt and we'll HAVE to put someone else in!

[Hayvern]

I do not want to see this. No way, no how. I wanted Cassel replaced but not like this. No way, not at all, cannot cheer this
